An exceptionally committed Hungarian band. I'll be surprised if they don't go places. They'd done support for Babyshambles before I took this photo. On another occasion, one of the Sex Pistols turned up to watch them.
The lead guitarist, Geiger, spent an evening over a post-gig pint teaching me to count to ten in Hungarian. :-)
As the days get colder and autumn approaches, my thoughts are drawn back to the springtime. To cherry blossoms and blue skies. To warmth and the promise of renewal.
Have a great weekend, everyone.
A woman reads a personal account of what the World Trade Centre meant to those who worked there at the Tribute WTC Visitor Centre in New York City, NY.
November 11, 2018 marks the 100th anniversary since the end of the First World War, Armistice Day.
After four years of conflict, the guns fell silent. And we remember those who have given their lives on the battlefield, defending our country.
Liverpool City Centre.
My Sarah and Jenson dressed like in 1912 still remembering about Titanic's catastrophe. I wanted them to look like Rose and Jack, I hope I dealed with it quite good.

Located in the western outskirts of Berlin, the Berlin-Grunewald station was used to deport Jews to ghettos and extermination camps in the east. Today, where all of this happened, there is the Platform 17 Memorial inaugurated in January 1998 to commemorate the deportation done by Deutsche Reichsbahn during the years of Nazi Germany.
Between October 1941 and the spring of 1942, trains left Berlin from the Grunewald Station in the direction of extermination camps and ghettos on the eastern part of Europe. It was October 18 when the first train from the Deutsche Reichsbahn left Grunewald Station with about a thousand Berlin Jews. They were heading to Lodz, in Poland and, probably, they never came back to Berlin again.

Sukkot
Significance: Remembers the wandering in the dessert; also a harvest festival
Observances: Building and "dwelling" in a booth; waving branches and a fruit during services
Length: 7 days
...On the fifteenth day of this seventh month is the Festival of Sukkot, seven days for the L-RD. -Leviticus 23:34
The Festival of Sukkot begins on Tishri 15, the fifth day after Yom Kippur. It is quite a drastic transition, from one of the most solemn holidays in our year to one of the most joyous. Sukkot is so unreservedly joyful that it is commonly referred to in Jewish prayer and literature as Z'man Simchateinu , the Season of our Rejoicing.
Sukkot is the last of the Shalosh R'galim (three pilgrimage festivals). Like Passover and Shavu'ot, Sukkot has a dual significance: historical and agricultural. Historically, Sukkot commemorates the forty-year period during which the children of Israel were wandering in the desert, living in temporary shelters. Agriculturally, Sukkot is a harvest festival and is sometimes referred to as Chag Ha-Asif , the Festival of Ingathering.
The word "Sukkot" means "booths," and refers to the temporary dwellings that we are commanded to live in during this holiday in memory of the period of wandering. The Hebrew pronunciation of Sukkot is "Sue COAT," but is often pronounced as in Yiddish, to rhyme with "BOOK us." The name of the holiday is frequently translated "Feast of Tabernacles," which, like many translations of Jewish terms, isn't very useful. This translation is particularly misleading, because the word "tabernacle" in the Bible refers to the portable Sanctuary in the desert, a precursor to the Temple, called in Hebrew "mishkan." The Hebrew word "sukkah" (plural: "sukkot") refers to the temporary booths that people lived in, not to the Tabernacle.
Sukkot lasts for seven days. The two days following the festival, Shemini Atzeret and Simchat Torah, are separate holidays but are related to Sukkot and are commonly thought of as part of Sukkot.
The festival of Sukkot is instituted in Leviticus 23:33 et seq. No work is permitted on the first and second days of the holiday. (See Extra Day of Holidays for an explanation of why the Bible says one day but we observe two). Work is permitted on the remaining days. These intermediate days on which work is permitted are referred to as Chol Ha-Mo'ed, as are the intermediate days of Passover.

Remember a day before today
A day when you were young.
Free to play alone with time
Evening never come.
Sing a song that can't be sung
Without the morning's kiss
Queen - you shall be it if you wish
Look for your king
Why can't we play today
Why can't we stay that way
Climb your favorite apple tree
Try to catch the sun
Hide from your little brother's gun
Dream yourself away
Why can't we reach the sun
Why can't we blow the years away ?!
P.S : taken by me .. NOT photoshoped :D
At 8:46 this morning, thousands of people lined the waterfront of lower Manhattan and joined hands in a moment of silence to remember the victims of 9/11 as part of the Hand In Hand event. The line stretched all the way from the tip of lower Manhattan to past the World Trade Center site.

... there was Grandma Clampet, Pa Clamet, Ellie Mae and Jethro. Of course there was also Mr. and Mrs. Dreisdale, plus Mr. Dreisdale's unforgetable secretary...I can't remember her name.
... the still shots here were developed from a free download of the episode from iTunes. In this episode, there is the mandatory misunderstanding and the Clampets believe they've been invited to Mrs. Dreisdale's garden party, so they show up in full formal attiure and find the party very dull indeed, however when grandma decides to spicen things up with a bit of her white lightening in the punch, the party is salvaged and people get to that sublime state where they begin to jump and fall into the swimming pool.
... the music here is Roy Acuff. My mother and dad remembered Roy as one of the top country singers of the 20s and 30s. I remember him has Pat Boone's father-in-law. I have no idea who remembers him in the younger set. He's singing "Bang Away My Lulu" from 1936.
... I thought I better get this out while someone is still around who'll know what in the hell I'm talking about. Here's the link to the slide show ....
Today would have been my brother David's birthday, that image in the back is 64 years old.
In front are the wooden cheese pieces and prize medal won by his and my great grandfather, David Gottfried, for whom my brother was named.
I never met David the elder and I never knew David my brother.

Summertime photo of me at family home in Maryland taken by Tommie (Btusdin on Flickr) during one of our great visits.
The War Memorial opposite the entrance to Princess Square and adjacent to the British Legion. We should perhaps remember the men who's spirits will forever be in the old Bracknell and the talk of regeneration will mean nothing to them. They will probably remember stopping off at The Bull or Red Lion after a hard day in the fields. Maybe strolling down the old High Street on a Sunday afternoon in their best clothes.
They would not recognise their hometown today and even less so in the future. So, let's not forget them.
